When Pollard first became the recog-
nized head of Brooklyn dudedom he was
continually planning some new fad as
he called his eccentricities, in order to
more firmly establish his leadership. 1
met him one night in Days billiard rooms.
''My deah boy" he said, Il have the best
thing out. YOn know that boxing is the
latest craze. Well, people have rot pretty
well used to seeing theatre parties in box
es, and now pay but little attention to them
unless they make lot of noise, dontcher
know, and that's bad taste. Now, man
don't hire q box for fun, and he likes to
have people notice him in one, so have
hit upon great scheme, and this it it:
'Hire q box for yourself aloRe. If
there is party they will divide the atten-
ton Of the audience. The box must be on
level with the stage. Do not make your
appearance until the curtain is up. Then
you walk in slowly, arrayed in full even
ing dress, with q light top coat and silk
hat. Crush hats arg not the thing now.
Advance to the front of the box with your
hat on and carelessly throw back the lapel
Of your top coat. Raise your opera
glasses, glance slowly over the audience
and bow four times. 1t don't make anv
difference whether you know any one YOU
see or not, people will think you do.
Never bow to any one in the balcony.
After you have bowed four times lower
your glasses and with your hat still on
slowly remove your top coat and throw it
carelessly on the floor or chair. Glance
slowly over the audience again, remove
your hat and then sit down, After that
you will divide the hOnOrs with the
star. '"--BrOol1lyn Eagle

OF this tree Mr.. P. J. Bercxmans saws.
''The first tree Of the umbrella form is re-
ported to have been found upon the land
OF President Burnett, at San Jacinto
Tex. l received a few seeds from that
tree some twenty years since, and the
seedlings have retained the identical form
OF the parent. To distinguish this from
the common China tree gave it the name
OF Umbra culifOrmis, with the approval of
Professor Asa Gray, who saw the young
trees here"
The trees are very desirable ornamental
shade trees for the south, being very rapid
growers and very symmetrical in shane.
The greatest objection is the fact that thew
are deciduous. Speaking Of this tree some
weeks ago we said that in the winter it
was the reverse Of ornamental. We have
been requested to reverse this opinion.
We are not prepared to do so, but it is
merely a personal opinion, and no one
else need be influenced by it. In fact, we
today heard two gentlemen speak very
highly OF its appearance in winter when
the leaves are off. 1t is, Of course, quite
as regular and symmetrical in shape at
one time as ut another, but the entire alb
sence of any small twigs gives the branches
a rather uncouth, club shaped appearance.

Painting Portraits with a Hot pol,or,

c. c. Benham, New Haven artist, is
an artist with the poker, and his portraits
Of Charlotte Cushman, Clara Norris and
others have gained for him national
reputation. His method is to use a red
hot poker, passing it over the surface Of
highly polished light colored wood. The
hot iron burns or scorches the wood to a
greater or less degree, just as the effect to
be acquired requires. There is a charm
in the work, like that in relief work.
The technical difficulties of poker work
allow of a skillful display Of the designers
powers in securing unusual or unexpected
results; but Mr.. Benham has mastered
the art, producing portraits diversified in
effect and varied in light end shadow

It is said that Captain Black, who
gave his services for eighteen months
to the Anarchists, finds himself $50
600 poorer than he would have been if
he had never taken up their case.
Moreover. he has lost his friends, even
his old army comrades most having
deserted him, and his practice has
dwindled to almest nothing. If Cap
tain Black made this sacrifice from
kindness Of heart or pity or for the
unfortunate men he certainly deserves
praise, but if vanity and love of motor
iety were the chief motives that influ-
enced him, he will merit and receive
little sympathy.

A LEGACY.

The stars untarnished gold CLEANS in the meshes
Of thy hair,
The heavenly hue of Apra's blue lives in thy
wondering eyes,
The lips which kiss to crimson the pale clouds
that flush the skies
Have pressed thine own, and fingered lightly on
thy cheek so fair;
No wave of passion on thy heart hath sobbed in
sensuous signs,
Nor hath ambition brought to thy smooth brow
one touch of care.
The gods, with gifts supernfd and suuremc. have
lowered thee
Youth, purity and beauty thine, precious legacy.

The Reason Why

Ayers Pills are so popular is, that
While always reliable as a cathartic
medicine, they never leave any i'll
effects. This is because they are purely
vegetable, and entirely free from Gallo
mel or any other dangerous drug. In
all cases, therefore, whether the patient
be old or young, they may be conf
IDENTIFY administered.
In the Southern and Western States,
where arrangements of the liver are so
general, Ayers Pills have proved an in
estimable blessing. d. w. Baine, New
Berne, N. c., writes:
II suffered a long time with stomach
and liver troubles. 1 tried various rem
edies, but received no benefit until ]
